"Unflinching devotion to the Teacher is paramount in the life of a true seeker. To begin with, an external God can be the object of faith. But once the devotee grows to be a seeker, only a Wise Teacher can fulfil his quest. It is then for the seeker to get purified and enlightened by the words of wisdom from his Guru. Their bond and attunement put the Teacher on the pedestal of God. Such an impeccable Guru-sishya bond alone bestows wisdom, strength and fulfillment to the seeker."

Arikkantam and the adjacent land which measures nearly 1.5 acreswhere Naimishaaranyam is located were acquired through hearty contributions from devotees. A permanent kitchen, work-area, vegetable store and toilets have been constructed. With improved washing facilities and waste water disposal systems, the Satrashaala surroundings are quite clean and hygienic.
